Chris Boynton 
Posted in Every roster has at least a few of them. You know, the hot shot college player that somehow hasn’t been able to make anywhere near the impact at the professional level. The can’t miss kid who somehow managed to. He’s like the really, really smart kid who has a learning disability. He just can’t seem [...]

Here’s to my uncle Frank. A HugeViking fan who took me to my first NFL game!
As I sit here at my keyboard trying to think of yet another clever way to put a new twist to the whole Favre angle. I realize that this is becoming harder and harder to say basically the same thing over and over about the story that will not die. Nothing new to report…. really [...]
EA Sports – Not Too High On Vikes
Okay, so I know the Madden video game has basically zero to do with the real game of football, but a lot of you out there have just as much fun playing the game as the purple and gold as you do actualy watching them play. ESPN recently released Madden’s individual player rankings for the [...]

No matter how terrible a team was the season before, the NFL works hard to get the fans excited about the upcoming season, hoping that [...]
REPORT: Vikings To Work Out Favre
ESPN has reported that the vikings plan to send someone down south to meet with Brett Favre and check out his progress since his reported surgery.

While missing OTAs as a rookie is not an ideal situation, Allen is expected to be ready to go by training camp. This [...]
Herrera & Hicks at 100%
Brad Childress created quite a buzz when he did a radio interview yesterday in which he finally acknowledged the Vikings pursuit of Brett Favre. However, there were some non-Favre related tid bits to come out of that interview as well. One important comment made by the head coach was that offensive linemen Anthony Herrera and [...]
All Of The Sudden The Book Is Open On Favre
Make no mistake about it, any information you hear about the Favre-to-Vikings saga at this point is only out there because someone wants you to hear it. All of it might be true, some of it might be true, and in the end none of it might be true. But somewhere down the line Bus [...]
Media plays ping-pong while Favre and the Vikings Remain Silent
OK, so Brett Favre had surgery on his ailing shoulder in late may. That means he’s coming to Minnesota to play for the Vikings ! But wait…. His shoulder hasn’t responded and he’s getting frustrated, and if he’s not 100 % he’s NOT coming to Minnesota ! Then again……His family has booked the entire cheesehead [...]
